Top posting

What is more quickly? They DL the new posts, and read them offline, you retarded twit. The placement of your retarded top post changes nothing other than the world's knowledge of your level of stupidity.

You'r an idiot! I DO NOT have to view my post list threaded, just because some retarded f*ck wants to top post.

Learn how to read Usenet header, newbie!

You're a f****ng retard. You use Outhouse UnExpressive!

If you have "used" several, then stopping at Outhouse UnExpressive takes you form E-1 to 4-F. Strike Three... You're out!

If you are so conformal to electrical standards, why can your retarded ass not GRASP the FACT that Usenet ALSO has conventions, you stupid mother f***er?

You are piss poor with math as well, I see.

In other words, everybody has to conform to YOUR wishes rather than their own?

If top posting were not an emerging new norm, you wouldn't be railing against it.

Who put you in charge? And what language is this that keeps being interspersed with your English?

It is NOT a personal message board, stupid retard!

Indeed, you do not have to read top-posted messages at all. I invite you to refrain from doing so.

Dude, your retarded ass, and your retarded ways are NOT anything new. Idiots like you have come and gone for years. Go have another beer and get the f*ck out of Usenet until you have read a book on it. Obviously you refuse to gather any facts in real time.

You are a NEWBIE for saying that "emerging norm" thing, however. D'OH! Bwuahahahahahahaha!!!

It's about conformity, not "who's in charge", you retarded twit!

Ah, so you are not even an adult. Usenet is an adult forum, there are expletives used here all over the place. If you do not recognize them, you do not belong in Usenet. Go watch Full Metal Jacket. Place yourself in Pyle's shoes. Then go in the bathroom and act out part two of his most retarded act.

Your unread messages would place you in the minority group, chucko.

If we all had any better brains, we'd filter all top posting retards like you, and you would then see your posts being ignored.

On the Net (initially BITNET) since 1979.

It sounded like a seventh-grade locker room.

Don't reply to that shitslinger, then I see his replies even though I filtered them out directly! I don't care at what truckstop his mom "worked" then, or the one she "works" at now! However, it is nice that they share a common interest!

...

Not really, I don't really need to read what I typed (I typed it..) so the replies just stack up no matter what the order.

I think you missed the point that my reasonings there were hypothetical, extrapolating from points mentioned, and needn't apply. Reductio ad absurdum or so.

It isn't new information [quoted text], if you go to read the first post[s] in the thread!

If you think that counts as "traversing the whole thread", then so be it. Hell, you have to read the whole thread to read the whole thread anyway, so what's your point!?

Even worse that you could say something so utterly naive after so long, and so wrong.

You wouldn't know, remember?

Top posting retard.

Huh? That's in chronological order, in other words bottom-posted. It is in fact exactly how the last post in a properly quoted bottom-posted conversation on usenet would look. I guess the way you don't like is actually more natural for you, or you wouldn't have done it even when trying not to.

THIS is top-posting:

Good thanks John

How are you?

Good thanks David

Hi John - how are today

Tim.
